I'm back..!

Ni hao! Bonjour! or Hi! It's been ages I didn't update my blog. I even forgot the password to log in. AGAIN! hahaha.. So, I guess I have to start all over again.Can I? To be frankly, it's actually a task given by my lecturer=) But I enjoy doing this kind of task. As I love to write.^_^ Language has always been my niche area. I enjoy playing with words. Scribble here and there. ^_^

Okay, this is a story of me~Nor Atikah bt Zainol~ Or also known as Tikah by most of my friends. Some call me Tika, Ati and a few call me ika ( which I kind of like it. As it's short and sweet.Don't you think so?hee..=p) Born on January 4, 1988. Proud to be the 'citizen' of Pahang.^_^

My learning institutions.

~Tadika KEMAS Cheroh.

~Methodist Girls School Raub

~SMK Tengku Kudin, Raub

~UiTM Negeri Sembilan

~UiTM Shah Alam

* I went to National Service at Setiu, Terengganu in 2006*

*Ex-Maybankers in 2010*

Let's start off by saying that I'm actually a very humorous person. Almost everyone thinks that way about themselves, don't they?=p My mind appears to be unstoppable robotic engine that runs all the time, even when I'm sleeping.Insomnia, much?Naah~

One might say I'm vibrant, passionate,spontaneous, happy -go-lucky and maybe a little crazy too! I am someone who likes to add a little fun to all the things that I do-work or play-but of course, I know when to be serious.

I've so many things that I want to share with you. Some of it is, the sweetest moment that I'll

never erase it from my mind. I've been awarded the 'Outstanding Student Award'

of Methodist Girls School in 2000. I was also the Head Prefect of my high school.

I won the Public Speaking Competition in 2006. Representing UiTM Negeri Sembilan.

All of these, don't make me feel superior. It taught me to be more confident and

believe in myself. I realise, I can do almost anything if I really put my mind into something.

Everyone is special in their own way.=)

As I mature,I learn about the imperfections of life. I realise life can be harsh, that growing up can means taking on responsibilities and accepting the consequences of life.I think about a lot of things. Something that's affected me, something that's touches the world or even something mundane. I believe by making all the people around us happy, we'll be happy and enjoying ourselves as well. But then again, we can't really fully satisfy other people.We are just human.We make mistakes. But we learn from it to a better person.=)

I'm a very opinionated person. Having said that,I'm not against anyone who holds an opposing view, because everyone is entitled to his own opinion.

Never judge a book by its cover. Judging people by the first look is plain absurd. People who don't know me think I'm a quiet and naive person. I can't really blame them. Can I?As I have this angelic looking face (according to my best friend~Wan Iliana) Hahaha.. Enough with the self- complementation Atikah..=p Despite being 23, to most onlookers, I often get mistaken for 16-year-old. I don't really know how to react when they ask. Which school are you studying young lady? I just crack a smile.=)

I have so many goals in my life. One of it is I want to travel to other countries before I turn 30(Well,it's not that after 30 I won't travel anymore. It's just the target that I've made.Traveling abroad using my own money would be awesome!) So far, I've visited two countries.Indonesia and Singapore. I love traveling as I'm curious about how people in other parts of theworld live. I would like to experience for myself the cultures of different peoples.

Top places that I want to visit are Australia, New Zealand and Egypt.=)

How I wish I have the career quite similar like Anthony Bourdain's-

A combination of wild gastronomic journeys, travel and writing.

Or, in other words-A combination of everything that I love.

I'm a simple person.Kind of person that you'll love to be friend with. I guess so. Just kidding..Hehehe..I'm the eldest among my siblings.They call me Ayong.My mum is from Perak and my dad is from Kedah. Surprise?But we'd live in Pahang since I was born. I'm a talkative person. But might get real silence sometimes. (But you'll rarely meet me when I'm in this kind of mood) I like giving smiles. As I believe with just a smile I can lit up my spirit and brighten up my day. Maybe others as well.=)
